It's really weird that Gateron Yellows aren't in more mass market boards. Even when Gateron switches are used it's nearly always Reds, despite the Yellows generally being much preferred as far as I can tell.


People who are not too far into keyboards often have a vendetta against actuation force before they give heavier switches a week or two. You can see this in the video LTT did on blind switch tests, they picked the most mainstream (including MX browns in the tactile category, considered garbage by most of the community) switches because they were familiar.
